Technical Description
This vertical machining center features a large worktable measuring 94.480" (L) by 32.280" (W), capable of supporting a maximum workpiece weight of 17,600 lbs, making it suitable for heavy-duty machining applications. It incorporates a vertical spindle with an ISO 50 taper, delivering up to 3,000 RPM and powered by a 30 HP (30-minute rating) motor, with an optional 15 HP spindle motor available for flexibility in power requirements. The machine is equipped with an automatic tool changer (ATC) for efficient tooling, although the chip-to-chip tool change time is effectively zero seconds, indicating fast tool changes or possibly a placeholder specification.
The machining center operates on three axes (X, Y, and Z) with travels of 62.99", 31.5", and 31.5" respectively, allowing generous milling volume. Rapid traverse rates for all three axes are 394 inches per minute (ipm), facilitating quick positioning and enhanced cycle times. The machine lacks a U axis, focusing on standard 3-axis machining operations. The combination of a robust spindle, large table size, and heavy load capacity positions this machine for machining large, heavy components requiring medium spindle speed and high torque output, suitable for industries such as heavy machinery manufacturing, aerospace, and large tooling.
Overall, this vertical machining center offers a powerful and sizable platform for demanding vertical milling tasks, blending heavy load capacity with moderately high spindle speed and rapid axis movements to provide a flexible, high-performance machining solution.
